"It's lost its community of innovation." With more scrutiny than ever of boondoggles, agencies are forgoing SXSW or sending less people to the event this year.

In the first Digiday Video Briefing, senior reporter Sahil Patel writes that Facebook Watch is not a TV network of the future.

The Guardian has nearly 860,000 Instagram followers, up 57 percent from a year ago. It's part of an effort to build a young, loyal audience that doesn't visit its main digital properties.

"Ninety percent of a creative person's life is rejection." Gerry Graf, chief creative officer and a founder of creative agency Barton F. Graf, discusses how rejection has shaped his career in the latest Starting Out episode.

From Glossy: To better resonate with an evolving demographic of readers and advertisers, T Magazine, The New York Times' fashion and style title, is changing its editorial strategy and design.

The Digiday Retail Summit is coming up next week, from Feb. 21 - 23. Don't miss this opportunity to discuss the rise of Amazon with senior retail and brand executives and reserve your spot in Austin today.
